Terms of Service

The Wall is run by Toolaby, the operator of toolaby.app and toolaby.com ("Toolaby", "we"). These terms are between Toolaby and you, the person or company that opens a workspace to sell browser extensions through the Wall ("you", "the developer"). By opening a workspace you agree to them.

If you bought a tool from a developer, section 12 is about you. Everything else describes what the developer and Toolaby agree.

You sign in with a one-time link sent to your email address; there is no password. Keep that mailbox safe: whoever can read it can sign in as you.

A workspace is yours, or your company's. Give it accurate details — the name and support address are shown to your buyers, and the Stripe account you connect must be one you are entitled to use. You are responsible for everything done in your workspace, including by people you add to it.

For each tool you register, the Wall runs the accounts and the entitlement: buyers sign in on your workspace's own address, buy through Stripe Checkout on your Stripe account, and the extension you ship checks with the Wall whether a device is entitled — by licence, subscription, trial or a grant you gave. The Wall also runs the free-use counter, device limits, a minimum-version switch, sign-in and licence emails in your name, and the signing keys your extension trusts.

We keep improving it, and we may change or retire features. When a change would need work on your side, we tell you by email first. A test deployment is for trying things: nothing bought there is a real purchase, and we may reset it.

• Sell or ship anything unlawful, deceptive, or that harms the people who install it — malware, spyware, hidden data collection, or an extension that does something other than what its store listing says.
• Break the policies of the store you publish in. The Chrome Web Store's are the ones that matter most; their rules on data use apply to your extension, not to the Wall.
• Send mail through the Wall to people who did not buy from you or ask you for it. Creating customers is for people you already deal with, not a way to reach strangers.
• Use grants or manually created customers to hand out access for sales you made elsewhere in order to avoid the fee.
• Probe, overload, or interfere with the Wall, other workspaces, or other developers' buyers; or try to extract the platform's source, keys or internal data.
• Give anyone else the client library or boilerplate as a product of its own. They are for extensions that use the Wall.

Your buyers are your customers. For their personal data — the email they sign in with, what they bought, the devices they use — you are the controller and Toolaby processes it on your behalf, to run the service described above. You must tell your buyers, in your own privacy notice, that accounts and licences for your tool are run by Toolaby, and link to our privacy policy.

We process buyer data only to provide the service, to keep it secure, and as the law requires. We do not sell it, use it for advertising, or contact your buyers about anything except their account and purchases with you. For the parts we decide ourselves — fraud and abuse detection, rate limits, security records — Toolaby is the controller, and our privacy policy explains what and why. A data processing agreement on the same terms is available on request.

Each workspace's buyers live in their own pool. A buyer of yours is not a buyer of anyone else's, and no other developer can see them.

You sell; Toolaby does not. Checkout, the charge, the receipt, refunds, disputes and tax are on your Stripe account, under your name and your agreement with Stripe. You set the prices. You decide your refund policy and honour it. You answer your buyers' questions about their purchase. Toolaby never holds your money.

The fee. Toolaby takes 3% of each sale made through the Wall, as an application fee at the moment of payment. There is nothing monthly and nothing for a workspace that sells nothing. If we change the fee we tell you by email at least thirty days before it applies; sales already made keep the fee they were made under. Stripe's own processing fees are separate and are Stripe's.

Taxes. Whatever tax applies to your sales is yours to collect and pay. Stripe Tax can do it on your account if you turn it on. Our fee is exclusive of any tax that may apply to it.

Sign-in links and licence emails go to your buyers in your workspace's name, from a Toolaby address, with replies to your support address. If you verify your own domain, they go from an address on it instead; you are responsible for that domain and its records. We may pause mail from a workspace that generates complaints, bounces, or reports of abuse, and we tell you when we do.

Your tools, your brand, your prices and your buyers' data are yours. The Wall, its client library, the boilerplate, the dashboard and everything that makes them work are Toolaby's. You may use the client library and the boilerplate in your extensions for as long as they use the Wall; you may change them for that purpose. If you send us ideas or feedback we may use them without owing you anything.

We work to keep the Wall up and correct, and to answer your questions by email within a reasonable time. We do not promise a particular uptime, and the service can be unavailable for maintenance or for reasons outside our control. Extensions are built to keep working for a day without reaching us, and to go back to the free tier — not to break — when they cannot.

You can stop at any time: deactivate a tool, or ask us to close your workspace. We can suspend a workspace, a tool or an account when these terms are broken, when the law or a payment provider requires it, or to protect buyers, other developers or the service — and we tell you why, unless the law forbids it.

When a workspace closes, its tools stop being served and new purchases stop. We keep the records the law requires and the ones needed for open disputes, and delete the rest as described in the privacy policy. Tell your buyers before you close; their purchases were from you.

The Wall is provided as it is and as it is available. We do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted or free of errors, or that it fits a particular purpose of yours. We are not responsible for your extension, your sales, your buyers' claims, or what Stripe or a store does with your account.

To the extent the law allows, Toolaby is not liable for indirect losses — lost profit, lost data, lost business — and our total liability to you for everything arising from these terms is limited to the fees you paid Toolaby in the twelve months before the claim. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

You will cover Toolaby for claims from third parties, including your buyers, that arise from your extension, your sales, your pricing and refunds, your taxes, or your breach of these terms.

You bought from the developer, not from Toolaby: the charge, the receipt, the refund policy and support for the tool are theirs, and their name is on all of it. Toolaby runs the account you signed in with and the licence that unlocks the tool, on the developer's behalf.

Your account is yours alone; use it on the devices the developer allows and do not share it or your licence key. We may close an account used for fraud, abuse, or to attack the service. Nothing in these terms takes away rights you have as a consumer under the law where you live, including any right to withdraw from a purchase — those rights are against the developer, and we help them honour them.

We may update these terms. For changes that matter to you we send an email to the address on your account at least thirty days before they take effect; the date at the top always shows the current version. If you keep using the Wall after that date, the new terms apply. If you do not agree, close your workspace before then.

If something goes wrong, write to us first; most things are resolved by email. If they are not, these terms are governed by the laws of the country where you habitually live or, for a company, where it is established, and its courts decide, unless a law that protects you says otherwise. If any part of these terms cannot be enforced, the rest still applies.
